10.03.12
Prestwick and Manston airports have been put up for sale by their owner Infratil of New Zealand, the BBC reports. The infrastructure investor said it is looking for a buyer for its British airports as a result of a decision to refocus its investment plans.
Prestwick Airport's Chief Executive Iain Cochrane said: ‘At the Infratil Investor Day today in New Zealand, it was announced that Infratil intends to sell both Prestwick and Manston airports. This decision comes from a re-focusing of Infratil's investment profile and has been under consideration for some time. It is consistent with Infratil Chief Executive Marco Bogoievski's public comments over recent months.’
‘Prestwick is a great airport with a great team and a great future. I believe this is an excellent opportunity for us to attract new investment into the airport to provide the stimulus for future growth. Today, it's business as usual as the busy summer season approaches and we're totally focused on looking after our customers.’
